I've put this off long enough.

If you don't know me I'm Ren, I'm a trans woman whose unable to work due to mental and physical illness (I also run @wizpolys and manage my cat son's blog @rickybabyboy ). To stay above water I had to max out all my credit lines a while ago. I've been dodging calls from debt collectors for the past 6 months+ since I had to quit my job.

I tried to pay it off before but I just ended up having to use it again but currently I'm in a more stable situation so now I want to try and pay these off so I can close these accounts and not have to worry about this anymore and maybe even rebuild my credit at some point.

I know this is a Very long shot but I'm trying to raise 3185$. I don't expect anyone to help but I'd appreciate literally anything.

My venmo is eseal, cashapp is $cmder, and you can dm me for my PayPal.

If you want to donate but you need proof please message me, I just don't want to post screenshots of my accounts publicly!

$932.52/$3386 raised 05/14/20 almost to 1/3 done!

Please share and help if you can! Ty!

Edit: tacking on what I need to pay back the phone bill I've been avoiding

Hi. I’m generally one to just boost other’s donation posts, but I actually need help myself this time.

As some of you probably already know, I’m far from happy with the results from my top surgery 2 years ago. And from a consultation I had with a new surgeon last week, I’ve once again got it confirmed that my previous surgeon did a fucking terrible job. I’ve got leftover breast tissue all over the place as well as a big dent on each side where he removed way too much.

I’ve got a surgery scheduled for the beginning of September (2020) to deal with those big dents. He’ll try to take some fat tissue from my chest as it is, but if that’s *just* breast tissue then it can’t be used for this and I will most likely get a fat transplant from my hips instead.

This surgery is going to cost me 37500 SEK (aprox. 3750 USD), not counting travel costs, after-care supplies and things like that. And there is a big chance I will need an additional surgery after this to deal with the leftover breast tissue, which is probably going to cost around the same amount (if not more).

I don’t expect strangers to pay for all of these costs for me. And I have been conflicted about if I should even make this post or not. But if you want to help me, I would be super grateful for any amount you’re able to donate. If you’re enjoying the content on any of my blogs, I would love it if you took this chance to support me. Even the smallest amount would mean a lot to me.

My paypal link is paypal.me/samsitioning or you can send to  samsitioning@gmail.com if that link doesn’t work for you.

I have a kofi page (ko-fi.com/samhannes) as well, but the money I get through there will at the moment go to covering the costs for a giveaway I’ve promised to hold with the funds raised through there. Anything I raise there after reaching the goal for that will go to the surgery fund though.

And please, please don’t donate to me if you’re struggling with money issues yourself at the moment. I know these are rough economic times for an awful lot of people right now.

hiya! I figured id make an informational post about the little things ive noticed about being on testosterone that I found weren’t talked about a lot when I was starting my transition and even before when I was doing my research. I think that trans sexual health is an extremely important part of trans peoples lives (and that doesnt necessarily mean sex) seeing as the physical changes that happen during transition are often foreign to us. Sexual health keeps us healthy and comfortable in our bodies, so do your best to stay attentive to your body’s changes! As always, consult your doctor if you feel the need to. These are only tips ive learned from transitioning myself and from my doctor when I asked about certain things.

hey i just wanted to pass on a tip from a friend: if you're getting top surgery soon, invest in a shower chair. It makes showering, especially hair washing a lot easier

So, my partner and I are in a bit of a bind. We are currently homeless; we have a tent to live in, placed in the backyard of his father, but they just found out that their lease is up within a month or so, meaning when they end up without a home - so do we. Or, at least, a safe place to pitch a tent. 

The information is in the link; we were basically fucked over first by an abusive living relationship, and then by our place of employment.

Anything helps, from just a few dollars to just resharing. Thank youo. <3

Leaving self-made-Kings

Mod Kurt here.

 I’ve been thinking of leaving for awhile now. I’m sorry that this blog hasn’t been very active anymore and will probably continue to be after I leave. I haven’t felt like this blog has been right for me anymore and I’ve been wanting the freedom to do my own thing without being connected to this and feeling like I have to live up to your expectations. Life has been so much better for me lately. I’m sorry that I didn’t fulfill all the promises I made to y’all. I’ll still be available at wolfkat.tumblr.com if any of y’all want to reach me. Don’t hesitate to say hello or anything at all <3

(Seriously, don’t hesitate to reach out to me if any of y’all need anything at all, I’ll still be more than happy to help or try to point you in the right direction to get the help you need)

It’s vital that young trans people understand that they can have a future

[self-made-kings]

There’s nothing wrong with trans guys liking “guy stuff.” 

There’s nothing wrong with trans guys feeling good about buying “unnecessarily gendered items to protect fragile masculinity.”

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to be masculine, assertive, confident, etc.

Expressing yourself as a man doesn’t mean you want to actively harm, harass, assault, or otherwise oppress women. 

Being a trans man doesn’t mean that you’re ducking oppression to be an ~entitled male~ and active rape culture promoter, and it doesn’t mean that you were influenced by too many male protagonists in media that have led you to identify as male to feel “normalized.”

Don’t feel guilty for being a man. I say this because I wish someone had told me this when I was first struggling with my own identity, because the people I talked to about it told me I only felt a longing to be male as a result of toxic masculinity.

[self-made-kings]

trans kids following me: you have a future. you have a happy adulthood coming. you will have the body you want. you will have peers that respect you. you will feel blessed when you look in the mirror, and you will be so so grateful that you made it here.

As someone who changed his name just for fun when I thought I was still cis, i promise most people are ok with accepting a new name, even if you lie and say it’s a nickname. I promise. It’s really easy to just casually go “hey I wanna go by Bob now, it’s an old nickname I wanna bring back” like. Just start introducing yourself to new ppl, no one knows better. and if someone accidentally deadnames you just go haha no I go by my nickname now.

It sucks that ppl treat nicknames as more sacred than trans ppls choice names but still.
